From a young age, I've had a burning passion for the Rangers that will never die. I previously worked as a contributor for Blueshirts Nation covering post game analysis. As a means to pursue a career in the journalism/communication field, I am currently enrolled in the Phillip Merrill School of Journalism at the University of Maryland. I plan to continue covering the Rangers and all things hockey as I search for professional opportunities.
